Cory Asbury - My Inheritance

[Intro]
Eb Ab
(x2)

[Verse 1]
Eb
I knew he loved his whiskey
Ab
I knew he loved his wine
Eb Ab
But I was never quite sure if he loved me
Bb
And I always wondered why
Eb
I didn’t want his money
Ab
Lord knows he didn’t have much
Eb
Maybe this guitar he gave me
Bb Eb
Was his “I believe in you, son”

[Chorus 1]
Ab Eb
I didn’t get forgiveness for the smallest of things
Ab Bb
But I got who he was and who I didn’t want to be
Eb Ab Cm
God I’m thankful for the beauty in the mess
Eb Bb
I wouldn’t be the man I am today
Ab Eb Ab
I guess that’s my inheritance

[Verse 2]
Eb
There ain’t much of nothin’
Ab
That I didn’t try
Eb
Looking for love in every wrong place
Bb
Didn’t make it right
Eb Ab
I hurt a lot people
Bb Cm
Cause hurt people hurt
Eb Bb Eb
And sayin’ sorry when you’re not sorry, man, it never works

[Chorus 1]
Ab Eb
I didn’t get forgiveness for the smallest of things
Ab Bb
But I got who he was and who I didn’t want to be
Eb Ab Cm
God I’m thankful for the beauty in the mess
Eb Bb
I wouldn’t be the man I am today
Ab (Eb)
I guess that’s my inheritance

[Instrumental]
Eb Ab Eb Ab Bb

[Verse 3]
Eb
I ran like hell to Jesus
Ab
Didn’t know what else to do
Eb
He showed me his hands
Bb
And He said, Son I did this for you
Eb Ab
And you’ll be a daddy like you never knew
Bb Eb
Cause I take broken things and make em new

[Chorus 2]
Ab Eb
I got forgiveness for the smallest of things
Ab Bb
I got who He was and who I wanted to be
Eb Ab Cm
God I’m thankful you saw beauty in this mess
Eb Bb
It made me the man I am today
Ab Bb Eb Ab
I guess that’s my inheritance
Eb Bb
That’s my inheritance
